The item container is a service that is used to structure elements (other services) in a container. The container can contain navigation (interaction design) parts depending on the implemented templates. Because of the open nature of this service/function many containers and interaction designs can be created. For example item viewers (image viewers, movie viewers, etc.) and menus (vertical and horizontal tabs, etc.)
